Subject: Volume 4 issue 4

Unfortunately, this issue contains very little of any real interest. The Hand From The Deep is probably the most interesting thing here, far stronger than the other stories of weird medical procedures published in this magazine due to its more pronounced elements of body horror. Death-Waters is also perhaps worth mentioning, if only because it's an early work by an author who would later become significant, although it's far from Long's best story, possibly even one of his worst. Unfortunately, the others here are mostly just repetitions of the magazine's most overused and uninteresting themes: mad surgeons, voodoo, hypnotism, lost civilizations (the example contained herein, The Valley of Teeheemen, is almost hilarious in how poorly written it is), ghost stories with rationalized explanations, etc. Definitely a lesser issue.
